Primus

[Vieuphoria]

Finally back together. Doing a couple of shoes here in June and have a new album out in Summer. Anyone fancy them playing? I would love it.

Blinkin' Flip. Blast from the past that one. I saw them years ago and it was a great gig. About 1993 from memory? Touring Seas of Cheese. Tommy the Cat was ace, crowd went nuts.

Where the hell would they play? Avalon maybe?

I would do anything to see these guys at the park. Just about to look up their tour dates and email everyone I know!!! This is incredible news!!!!

would love Primus to be there but the dates in UK are actually mid July not June so can't really see it happening

Download or something I reckon.

sonisphere twitter has mentioned them twice in as many days. fingers crossed!

[lucyginger]

I would love them to play Glasto!!

[ampersand]

looking at their UK dates and the dates of Sonisphere I'd almost bet money on it

the Friday of Sonisphere would make sense given their connection with Metallica. Think over Glastonbury Primus will be in Spain and Italy

yeah that's true he auditioned for them after Cliff Burton died. Also Les Claypool went to same school as Kirk Hammet. (who is in their video for John the Fisherman) James Hetfield plays guitar on the Primus song 'Electric Electric' so over the years there are many links.

Just gotts hope those tickets for Brixton last, I think they will sell fast - first Uk shows in 14 years !!

didn't realise they were that closely linked!

and i'm 99% positive that my brother went to see primus either last year or the year before in london. where's this 'first uk dates in blah de blah' come from?

[ampersand]

Well, he didn't. They broke up around... 2000? I'm not exactly sure, but it wasn't a long time after they released antipop.
